Responding to risks to conservation in multifunctional landscapes Douglas Bardsley Geographical & Environmental Studies, University of Adelaide. Fourby40 seminar SA Department of Natural Resources & Environment Adelaide, November 2010

Regional Adaptation Planning How big is this going to be? – need to inform Tough governance challenge – need to integrate When & how do we incorporate the climate change impacts into our future planning? – need to engage (Bardsley and Sweeney 2010)

(Source: McInnes et al. 2003) Mediterranean climatic regions – except for SA all are Global biodiversity hotspots! (Bardsley 2010a)

Colour Key for Exposure, Sensitivity, Potential impact & Vulnerability (not Adaptive capacity) Low -Medium High- Key for Adaptive capacity Limited Medium Significant –XXXX (Bardsley 2006)

Issues for conservation Risks are likely to involve a fundamental re- organisation of the local ecology eg. 1 o Changing climate: Drying, temperatures 2 o Changing ecological processes & interactions: disturbance regimes - Bushfires 3 o Demands from other sectors for space & adaptation responses: Bushfire management policies Do our policies respond to these levels of risk?

Designing & implementing strong adaptation policy: the NatureLinks example Key Elements: Connectedness No species loss Integration & partnerships People in Nature (DEH 2004)

Comparative rating of the importance of current environmental issues (Bardsley & Liddicoat 2008)

EPIDEMIE study (Bardsley & Edwards-Jones 2006; 2007)

Perceived importance of environmental issues (important many plants did not originate on the island = Group A, not important = Group B) (p<.001, p<.01, p<.01, p<.001)

Evaluations of the benefits of invasive exotic plant species (important many plants did not originate on the island = Group A, not important = Group B) (p<.001, p<.01, p<.01, p<.001)

A new era of environmental risk Will require some strong policy responses Needs the legitimacy of environmental governance to improve in the minds of many stakeholders Requires broad acknowledgement that both conservation management & governance will go be passing through a period of learning
